"White Pride" March a Failure? Not According to Boneheads

Calgary police, out in full force in the downtown, kept sparring white-pride supporters and anti-racists a safe distance apart for several hours Saturday.

Given about 200 anti-racists and 16 white-pride supporters — with a shared history of confrontations — chose to hold simultaneous rallies, dozens of police stood guard between the two and kept the factions a block apart.

It ended peacefully with just two arrests.

One man, said to be with the anti-discrimination group Anti-Racism Action Calgary, was carrying a hammer and crowbar in a knapsack, Insp. Kathy Grant said.

Robert Reitmeier, said to be an original member of Aryan’s Guard, was arrested on outstanding warrants.

The anti-racists met at city hall carrying placards as passing motorists honked horns and gave their thumbs up.

Not long after, a small contingent of white-pride supporters chanted as they marched towards the group.

Longtime anti-racist activist Jason Devine said the rally was to “celebrate diversity and protest racism and discrimination.”

“I think it is really disgusting to have this in downtown Calgary,” said university student Tonie Minhas.

One white-pride demonstrator, who spoke under the condition of anonymity, said accusations of racism and violence are “manufactured,” and he simply wants to be free to be proud of who he is.

“They can have black pride, Native pride, but you can’t have white pride,” he said.

“All I want is the right to be proud of my culture.”

We would comment on the claim that, "accusations of racism and violence are 'manufactured'" by pointing out the numerous posts on his blog that put that bit of revisionism to rest, however we were more interested in the delusional comments concerning the march itself. Remember that the boneheads claimed this would be epic. That people from all over Canada and the United States would be attending. That they would really surprise the anti-racists be coming in huge numbers to prove how much their views are supported.

And what did we get? Between 12 and 20 boneheads, all of whom appear to be from Alberta. Their numbers dwarfed by around 200 anti-racists. And they stayed behind the police lines (FYI, many of them wear badges that read, ACAB, or "All Cops Are Bastards" so we appreciate this particular irony). The prime organizer spent the march in jail for the second consecutive year and his girlfriend spent much of her time during the march on her cell phone bitching at people who said they would be there, but ultimately no-showed. Four members from Edmonton who were planning on coming to the march were instead in court (except for Decu, who no-showed and now has a warrant for his arrest it seems) and a reservist who planned on going is being investigated by the military.

They failed. Badly, And they looked foolish.

But don't let pride and dignity get in the way of a good delusion:

Of course John Beattie is no stranger to the telling of tall tales, but he appears lucid when compared to Bill Noble. When "Keaton" (better known by his birth name, William Brant) commented on his wish that more had showed up to the march, Noble compared the rabble on the bonehead side who did show up to the ancient Spartans who stood against the Persian empire:

That's right. Bill is comparing this (if you look hard enough, you'll see the boneheads behind the line of police):

to this:

So, help us out Bill. Does this make Natalie "Leonidas" because she led the 16 and Kyle "Queen Gorgo"?

Reality folks. Why not come over for a visit?

UPDATE 1: Natalie offers her views on the, "successful" march.

Okay. The numbers game. Even before the msm started publishing their numbers we were receiving reports that there were between 12 and 15 boneheads. And looking at the pictures that have been posted by the boneheads themselves show there sure as hell were not 30 people marching.

But we do find it interesting that while trumpeting the march as a success, she also goes to great pains to justify it's failure. The police were harassing them. Members were tossed in jail on trumped up charges (McKee, who pleaded guilty to what he was accused of and Hamelin who violated the terms of his probation) or for merely defending themselves (against shovel-wielding women who for some reason were carrying shovels while clubbing in downtown Edmonton). Former members (Marleau) sabotaged the march. The media was against them. The anti-racists proved to be violent (one arrest, though the individual was soon released).

NOBLE wasn't even at the March. Clearly he can only fight with words on the internet, which by the way he is NOT suppose to be using. The boogie man is still watching you Noble. It would be interesting if the Winnipeg Police got ahold of you eh?

I like how Natalie claims it was all the cops that kept them in line not the anti's... I bet if cops didnt even show, or give a flying f**k about their safety, I am quite positive that the anti's would of showed no mercy. And not only would their little crew of been stopped, but probably killed as well. So Natalie, consider yourself lucky to have had the cops there blocking your group from the anti's.

On another note, where was good ol' Kat? Was she afraid of showing to a rally where she has had sex with everyone else that attended? *cough*everyone in WEB, members of old aryan guard & puddles gaio*cough*

also, puddles is only 5'5 tops in real life. Hes the smallest kid I've ever seen. I think the blood and honour/combat 18/aryan guard/web/the village people/backstreet boys are all just little runts with small man syndrome... which is why they need to act out. Most of their hang around girls are taller than them.
